Candle MagickCandle magic is one of the simplest forms of spell casting. Candle magic rituals are simple but effective, and can be performed almost anywhere that you can light a candle. Whether you want to find a job, attract your soul mate or quit smoking, you can perform a quick candle ritual that will send your energy out into the Universe and help manifest your desires.

Candles are essential ingredients in many spells. They symbolize the fire element and spirit, the energizing force that activates spells and rituals. Candle magic is powerful, and it works because it helps you to focus your intent, allowing your personal will to manifest through the spell. When you clearly state your intention or desire and light the candle, your energy is released into the Universe to do your will.

Candle ritual is based on three key magical principles:

* Decide on a goal

* Visualize the end result

* Focus your intent, or will, to manifest that result

You should always use a brand new candle for spell work. To strengthen the power of a candle spell, you can carve a symbol that represents your goal into the wax. As the candle burns, your intentions will be released into the universe. Many witches “dress” candles with aromatic oils that correspond to their objectives.

When it comes to colors, you may wish to have a variety on hand for different magical purposes. Typically, color correspondences for candle magic are as follows:

Burn light yellow candles when you feel your self-assurance waning or you need an attitude boost.

Remember that when you burn candles, it is your intent that matters the most. This kind of ritual depends on synchronicity, so make sure that when you make your wish, you picture or act out the scenario in your mind as vividly as you can
